About: I've been around pets most of my life. And the most important thing I've learned is that they're not just pets, they're family. I have a dog that I love with all my life. We're available every day, as we're a family of six, so there's always someone at home. We can take care of them day and night and take them for walks. I have a fenced backyard where they can play and run freely. They can also roam freely inside the house. I also have a spare bedroom so they can sleep more peacefully.
About: I have been a dedicated dog dad for over 4 years. While I have experience managing a multiple dog household, I currently only have my resident German Shepherd at home during sittings. He is a "big baby" super friendly, well-socialized, and great at making guest dogs feel welcome. I live to make these 4 legged animals smile, you can be sure your pup will have a good time when I’m around! As a dedicated dog owner for over four years, I offer a safe and structured 'home away from home' for your pup. My household is perfectly set up for socialization, featuring my friendly, 'big baby' German Shepherd who loves making new friends. To ensure a calm and focused environment, my other resident dogs stay off site during bookings, allowing me to prioritize your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s managing high-energy play, providing gentle senior care, or maintaining strict feeding and medication schedules, I provide your dog with a reliable routine filled with backyard fun, mental enrichment, and plenty of cuddles. You can travel with peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for by an experienced handler who treats every guest like family! When a doggo stays with me, they aren't just a "guest" they become apart of the family. My goal is to keep their home routine so they don't feel the stress of your absence.
“Justina is fantastic! She is sweet and friendly. Justina was great with Bandit prepping for and on his walks. Justina was very patient with bandit and able to get him to walk when he was at times resistant. I feel so fortunate to have found her.”

About: Hello, You should know that I owned three dogs in the past. I am retired after 38 years in an electric power company. I absolutely adore dogs. I would lovingly care for your pet!! During my childhood our dog was a Scottish Terrier-Molly. After I married we obtained a Bearded Collie. Then later rescued a Greyhound. Before my Rover experience, I took care of three dogs -- pet sitting, walking, petting, loving. Max, my daughter's mixed breed dog, is SO MUCH fun. He is very active and I practically run to keep up with him. Tex, my older daughter's dog, is a real handful! He LOVES his walks and loves to play with his toys. Boomer and Cheddar were my brother's English Bulldogs--they both were limited in activities but just loved to lay on the couch with me and cuddle! I am retired and can work any day/night of the week. I absolutely love dogs and cats and would like the opportunity of walking/sitting yours. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community and can keep small thru medium dogs in my home. I do love to stay in the pet owner`s home because I love the bonding experience that can be achieved there.
“Rebecca is a very organized, detail oriented and warm person. She listened and took notes during our meet and greet session. Her interaction with A-Bu was wonderful. After the appointment, Rebecca sent us photos and videos, A-Bu looks like she was having fun running and playing with her.”
About: I (Eren) have been a veterinary technician since 2023, working in a variety of settings including a clinic, shelter, and university research hospital caring for special-needs dogs. Through this experience, I’m comfortable with medical care, senior pets, administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and handling animals with unique behavioral needs. I’ve also had animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to exotics, so I understand how different every species (and every personality!) can be. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with shy or anxious animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My partner Luca is also part of our Rover profile and shares this same passion for animal care. We have multiple pets together and work as a team to provide attentive, reliable care. Luca previously worked at the same clinic I’m at as a receptionist and veterinary assistant, and now works in a science lab where he also helps care for lab animals. His experience makes him calm, capable, and very comfortable handling a wide range of animals. What sets us apart is that we combine professional veterinary experience with genuine, everyday love for animals. Between the two of us, your pets will always have attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. We currently have cats, ferrets, mice and 1 bearded dragon of our own, and we hold ourselves to the same high standard of care that we would want for them. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine because animals have always been a huge part of our lives. I work full-time, but I schedule my Rover services around my work hours so that every visit gets my full attention. I’m typically available before or after work for drop-ins, walks, and evening check-ins, and I always communicate clearly about my availability. My partner Luca helps provide additional flexibility. He is a full-time student and works part-time in a lab, with a schedule that tends to stay consistent for longer periods. Because our schedules often complement each other, one of us is usually available when the other is not. This allows us to offer more consistent and reliable care throughout the day. Even with busy schedules, caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy and make time for, and we never take on more than we can fully commit to. We primarily care for pets in our clients’ homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. As a veterinary technician, safety is always my first priority. We follow your pet’s normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and playtime, while also keeping an eye out for any early signs of stress or illness. We’re respectful of your home, trustworthy with your space, and committed to creating a calm, clean environment for your pets while you’re away. We provide regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pet is doing.

Your animal will be in a safe environment and you can get regular updates. Thank you for considering me. I am currently tele commuting working from home. Your dog won't be left alone for hours on end and will not be ignored. Usually home 7 days a week The yard is fenced in, and I have also been using an apple air tag as an extra level of security. Making sure your dog never gets away is the highest priority.
“Tetiana was extremely responsive when we needed a last minute dog walker for our pup Luna. She came right away for a meet and greet and had a great rapport with Luna. We will definitely be using Tetiana for future walks with Luna!”

About: I have had pets my entire childhood and adulthood and have provided pet services for around 10 years. I have the most experience with dogs, cats, rabbits & other small caged animals. I absolutely adore any and all animals, no dog too big or small! I currently work from home with flexibility, ensuring your animal will be prioritized and loved extra! I currently work from home, with much flexibility. I have no children, so I have a decent amount of free time! Open to discuss schedules that fit your needs! Your pets will be cared for as if they are my own! I have a background in child care along with my experience with pet care and I have a deep understanding of the importance of safety. Along with safety, cleanliness, enrichment, exercise, and most importantly love are all focuses while providing pet services.

“Alicia was amazing! She came over the day before our booking to meet my dog. In the day of their walk, she kept me informed with photos and videos of Boone. Even better, she left Polaroids for me to find when I got home! Very happy with this booking.”
About: Hi! I am a pet momma of 5! I have 2 senior dogs and 2 lazy cats. My experience with dogs and cats goes far beyond just my pets. I have a bachelor's in biology with a focus on animal science. After graduating from Moravian College in 2015, I took on a job as a Veterinary Assistant at an animal shelter in NYC, Animal Care, and Control Center. Shelter medicine really awoke a passion for helping animals in dire need. My experience at the shelter led me to animal rescue. Currently, I am the founder of Zoe's Home Animal Rescue. I foster animals seeking adoption and work with foster families to maximize the number of animals we can help. I am looking to earn a little extra money in pet care. I also own 3 turtles, a tortoise, and my husband owns fish. So if your home has a lot more than four-legged pets, I'm your person! My schedule is flexible during weekday mornings and weekends. I can work with you to provide the pet care you need as well as the flexibility needed to care for your pet in the best way. I have a fenced-in yard, but I prefer to walk dogs to help with exercise and well as help gain your pet's trust. My dogs are pretty laid back and accepting of any pet I bring home. I like to call them my welcome committee whenever I bring in new fosters haha. My kids are older (10 and 14) and are animal lovers as well.
“Niki responded quickly, was willing to accommodate me last minute while I was feeling sick, and Mika was happily tired after her walk- what more could you ask for? Thank you again so much for your help!!”

Kadia is fantastic! She was punctual, respectful to my home and very kind to my rambunctious dog. She ensured his walk, treat and meal routines were followed and updated me consistently. She is experienced, safety focused and professional. Kadia will be my first choice for dog care after the great job she did and how comfortable my dog was with her while I was away! Thank you Kadia!!

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Allentown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Allentown. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
